- 1 box (about 18–20 oz / 500–550 g) brownie mix
- 2 large eggs
- 1/3 cup (80 ml) vegetable oil
Instructions
- 1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line two baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone mats.
- 2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the brownie mix, eggs, and vegetable oil. Stir with a spoon or spatula until a thick, glossy dough forms and all dry mix is incorporated.
- 3. Scoop heaping tablespoonfuls of dough and roll into balls. Place 2 inches apart on the prepared baking sheets.
- 4. For extra crinkle tops, gently press the tops of the dough balls with your fingers or the back of a spoon.
- 5. Bake for 9–11 minutes, or until the edges are set but the centers still look slightly soft.
- 6. Remove from oven and let cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Zusatztipps für die Zubereitung
To ensure the best fudgy texture, avoid overbaking the cookies; the centers should remain slightly soft before cooling. Using parchment paper or silicone mats helps prevent sticking and promotes even baking. For easier shaping, you can chill the dough briefly before rolling into balls.
